President Donald Trump on Thursday night fielded questions from Florida voters and an NBC News moderator for a town hall in Miami in what he expected to be a “set up.”

The live televised town hall lasted one hour from 8 p.m. ET and was moderated by Savannah Guthrie. The president, just hours before the town hall, told a reelection rally in North Carolina that he was “being set up tonight” by “Concast ... because it’s a con job,” referring to the NBC parent company Comcast. He also wrote on Twitter, “I wonder if they'll treat me as well as Sleepy Joe?”
